A word from Derick, the 'Iron Man' costume creator:

The costume is being worn by myself, Derick. The idea started after visiting a website, www.therpf.com. The website is full of creative people who share amazing costume builds. If your looking for "how-to insturctions" the site is full of people who help including myself. The costume took me around 6 months to build and I am glad to finally get to share it with others.

Great build Derick! I know what kind of time, effort, and especially patience it takes to make a costume full on pepakura, fiberglass and bondo. I love to detail you have on the inside of the elbows and on the back of the knees! 5 stars from me!

Hello, I am a local Pastor in Detroit. I would like to know if you live near our area. I am holding a party for boys to encourage them to devalue violence and value purpose. I am looking for action figures. Iron Man gets their attention. Please let me know. Maybe how we can buy a costume. 313-736-7891
